Die Dam Huis - Melkbosstrand
Eggs Benedict at Die Dam Huis |
Melkbos
is a beautiful seaside village on the north-western fringe of the Cape.
It is well known for its tranquility, wide white beaches and
water-sports and of course west-coast hospitality. If this is what you
are after you have to go and visit Die
Damhuis which is the oldest building in Melkbosstrand and used to be a
private homestead next to a dam back in the day of 1807. The building
has been declared a
National Monument and has been restored to its former glory to
accommodate a restaurant on the beachfront and it is absolutely
gorgeously restored. When you enter it's like going back in time.
Damhuis
offers succulent seafood and traditional cuisine in the perfect setting
where you
can enjoy views of Table Mountain and Robben Island amongst sandy
beaches at your feet. The Damhuis has a
variety on offer and freshly baked goodies to brighten your day. Enjoy
sitting on the beach with a chilled glass of wine, or in
the covered 'stoep' for great food, or step inside the old building and
enjoy the history of one of the oldest buildings in Cape Town, with a
bit of a cheaky Burlesque twist. I love that kids are taken care of in a
beautiful area where they can really enjoy themselves and you can relax
and enjoy the amazing aromas of Cape cooking. The Eggs Benedict is
absolutely to die for!
